Nice. Good to see Luke Samaras. How old is he these days? Looks like he still enjoys the bush.

Many years of experience in that team. A very fine gentlemans safari and equally fine shooting from the group. Well done.

Good times with great friends...


On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling

Life grows grim without senseless indulgence.

I've been thinking I need to go back to the Selous for some time now. That video convinced me I do.

Haven't been there since 2008. Loved the old smooth buffalo. Awesome trophies regardless of width.

There's a spring in Lukwati called the Gerard Miller spring. Always a lot of elephant and buffalo sign there. Hung a lion bait there, can't remember which year -- wasn't last year -- but never got a hit. Love the area though.

Wonderful video, Tim, thanks for posting it. Great group, glad I had a chance to meet everyone at Seacliff the evening before you arrived. Quality people all around.

Tim, I sure enjoyed this excellent video. Thank you!
Looks like very enjoyable/exciting bush/vegetation to hunt in. Some time you can see 100 yds or more, some times not. Fun to sneak from tree to tree.

I saw good shooting by everyone on wonderful buffalo. I was impressed with Mike's spine shot to finish his first buffalo on the ground. Off-hand right on the spine. Good work!

I am going watch this one again.

Wonderful video depicting hunting for buffalo and plainsgame in a fully stocked area. Hunting buffalo in the wide open can you image? What a treat that would be to have such an open line of sight! I gotta say though, not getting that blue eland bull on the way back to camp omg !!!!

Congrats to all parties involvedSmiler

Very good! Thanks gentlemen. Unless my eyes deceive me that looks to be a BRNO action on his Rigby. Good stuff.

And to add, if that is a later Roberts-era Rigby, it was probably made (at least stocked) by Mark Renmant, who is currently at Rigby.
